I have been even more sentimental than usual (if you can imagine that!) since learning my 2 youngest sons will be fathers in September. I showed Tyler as a toddler 2 weeks ago, and now here's my McKay...going back about 24 years!

The sound is way off sync but you get the general idea.I didn't add the music...it was already there.

I don't know where baby Tyler was on this day....maybe asleep?

I try to visualize what their children will look like. I so wish I had some video of Karen and McKenna!

I'm sure their children will be just as cute as they are! McKay still has that very charming smile and you haven't changed much either. Our children sure grow up much too fast, it seems. Thanks for sharing!

I just saw some home video of McKenna around the same age at the Kirkpatricks' house a couple of months ago, she was just as darling then as she was now. I hope you have a chance to see it someday. Their baby is going to be so cute and sweet.

Your children and grandchildren are all so beautiful and I'm sure the new additions will be just as beautiful (inside and out!).This video is so cute, and I love how McKay tries to drag you into the picture!

I've been so sentimental lately too, and so emotional, I just start to tear up at any minute.

Once again, what I enjoy most is seeing YOU, Jill! It's so fun to see how energetic and attentive and loving you were to your little ones. What a treasure to have that video. Do you have any more? We really WERE young once, weren't we? Here's proof!

I wish I had video of me! Unfortunately, I think all of our home videos were lost at some point--either when we moved to our house when I was three or by some other event.

The only video I remember ever watching of myself was one from when I was just 2 or 3 and we were visiting Galveston beach. (I think it was my first ocean experience.)I remember that I ran into the ocean and back out again, convinced that the waves were chasing me.
